only if you choose to cut your senses
and think local
act local
and behave local
will you miss the global movement of
everything
everywhere
at the same time
but if you dont
and you allow your curiosity to peek through
you will see that
you are not alone
never
nowhere
and all the time
.
.
you dont need to be in a certain place
to have arrived
you dont need to be with certain people
to feel welcome
you dont need to be with your family
to be home
and if you feel you do
then youve lost your sense of imagination
and became an adult
congratulation
oh, one last thing before you go...
i remember the imaginary food scene in hook (1991)
tried it myself in a museum on school excursion day
i was hungry as fuck and i imagined having a hamburger
so i was breathing in cold air into my mouth
and i let my stomach be filled with... air
the illusion of being spoon-fed-full worked
and this is how my fascination for fasting started
fasting is only a fancy word for starving
but imagination will never go out of fashion
so if youre still asking, "wheres the real food?"
you havent learned that you imagine first to be it
"if you dont imagine yourself being Peter Pan you wont be Peter Pan"
but when you do, "youre doing it!"
and you can envision yourself being the person you want to be
youll be speechless as you process the moment
and smile proudly
thats the proud smile i had on my face
when i finished my summer smile book 2 months ago
and im even prouder that i can share my gift with the world
and with you
so dont be shy and grab your copy
it would mean the world to me
